Stroji za cinike in perfekcioniste // Machines for Cynics and Perfectionists, Galerija Kapelica, 30.11. - 07.12.2010



"Stroji za cinike in perfekcioniste so trije objekti,  ki sestavljajo navidez nemogoče podobe. Inteligenco strojev določa obsesivna formalistična estetika in brezhibno delovanje, ki se postavlja proti konvencijam postmodernizma. »Maska« iz stekla nas zaščiti pred vsiljivo fragmentiranostjo sodobnega subjekta. Robotska konstrukcija v »Ognjeni sliki« določa eksplozivne nivoje v mešanici kerozina. Izgorevanje je možno uravnavati s subtilnimi premiki senzorne rokavice za taktilno oblikovanje goreče slike. Podobo lahko nadziramo, a hkrati nam stalno uhaja iz nadzora. Hekani Pletilni stroj je utopični sistem, ki bo v času razstave spletel podobo iz pikslov, ki so prevedeni v zanke. Slika ne obstaja več izven digitalne percepcije. Vsebina podobe bo vidna le za kratek čas ob koncu razstave, ko bo pletilni stroj podobo izbrisal / podrl."

"Machines for Cynics and Perfectionists" are three objects, which produce seemingly impossible images. Contrary to the postmodernist conventions, the machine intelligence is determined by an obsessive formalist aesthetic and flawless operation. "Mask" out of glass protects us from the intrusive fragmentation of the contemporary subject. The robotic construction in "Fire Painting" sets off explosive levels of kerosene. Its burning can be handled by subtile movements of the sensory data glove for tactile formulation of the fiery image. Thus, the image can be manipulated, yet it constantly escapes control. Hacked "Knitting Machine" is the utopian system, which knits the image out of pixels for the duration of the exhibition. Here the pixel is translated into a noose and the image does not exist outside the digital perception anymore. Its content will be revealed only for a short time at the end of the exhibition and a moment later the Knitting machine will unravel the image. 

The author will activate "fire paintings" every workday from 18.00 - 20.00.
